los angeles is getting green and chicago is getting an infrastructure because republicans are working together to do it. they did not check their brains at the door. their purpose was to get something done. why is this true? why does cooperation work better? nobody is right all the time, and a broken clock is right twice a day. [applause] everyone of us and everyone of them who is compelled to spend leading lives between those extremes, knowing we are never going to be right all the time and hopefully we are right more than twice a day. [laughter] unfortunately, the fraction that dominates the republican party does not see it that way. they think government is always right and compromise is weakness. in the last couple of elections they defeated two republican senators because they dared to cooperate on issues important to the country, even national security. they beat a republican congressman with almost 100 percent voting record because they said he realizes he did not have to hate the president to disagree with him. that was a nonstarter. they threw him out.

this is a "los angeles times" head line covering the welfare attack the first panel discussed. it was repeated by rick santorum at the republican convention. this clip got a lot of play. people found it very refreshing that the "los angeles times" was willing to directly call out rick santorum and to say that the claim was inaccurate. it does not say, repeats welfare attack calls -- called inaccurate. there is no punch polling. it is very direct. this is the person making the claim, and it is inaccurate. this is a kind of coverage we do not often see. it is quite powerful. it has the potential to make politicians think twice, to make them have that conversation that was talked about in the first panel. do we want to go over this ? fact texting is not magic -- over this line? fact checking is not magic. what else constructively can journalists do? this is an example i think might be especially helpful to reporters. think about how to report a story. you guys don't write your own head lice. i understand. you do not have control over whether you can get a line like that into your
